Are we supposed to see the puzzle with the red marks or before?

Just saw the full puzzle and the answer doesn't seem tooooooo difficult. You have it up to the end of the second statement. Now you only need to add the third and you're done!

The correct answer is........that Cheryl very much overestimates how much anyone cares.

I too have now googled the answer.
And I was right!
Even my logic appears to be congruent.

Yep. Now we can move along to how Bernard's statement should have read "At first I didn't know..." instead of "At first I don't know..."

Armed with their recently acquired knowledge of Cheryl's personal information, Albert and Bernard conspired to commit identity theft. Once they had secured credit cards in her name, they ordered all of the plugins from the Bapu collection. Bernard wanted to stop at that point, but Albert insisted on attempting one more big score. They ordered every single copy of Kontakt 5 in existence. Gleefully, they watched as Bitflipper and other legitimate customers languished in agony, anxiously awaiting the delivery of their software.
Unfortunately for the diabolical duo, musicians are creative beings and they don't stand for software delivery delays. It didn't take long for Bitflipper to track them down, thanks to their incessant bragging about how they figured out Cheryl's birthday. While authorities won't speculate on the exact methods he used to extract confessions from the boys, an anonymous government official was quoted as saying, "That's harsh, even for Singapore."
So, kids, identity theft is wrong. In addition, Cheryl now knows if she doesn't want members of the Chess Club showing up at her birthday party, she should do what all of the other girls do and give them the wrong address.

None of the above... she was a test tube baby and therefore had no official B-day.

The answer is July 16th. Pretty easy to figure out.

Slightly OT, except that it includes a lot of cool brain-teasers...if you haven't caught the TV show "Brain Games" on the National Geographic channel, it's worth searching out. One of my favorites is this one: when this bus drives away, which direction will it go, left or right?  The claim is that 80% of children over the age of 5 will get it, while most adults will not.
 All else is in doubt, so this is the truth I cling to. My Stuff

it will go to the left according to the side of the road they are on, unless this is England!

I'm going with forward. That's the most common direction for buses to travel regardless of country. Granted, there's a small percentage of the time where it will go in reverse, but I think the odds are in my favor here.
